Bill..thanks for that. My wife saw the second plane go in from atop her building. Me,I was coming off the beach from detecting when a motorist stopped me and ask me if I heard what happened. As I was leaving i stopped in the middle of a bridge with an unrestricted view of downtown Manhattan...awful moment in my life. My reason for going up to the USS New York was exactly for that reason. Out of ashes this massive ship blooms, well with 7.5 tons of the WTC....And now down in Texas, Ft. Hood a crazed soldier shoots and kills 12 fellow soldiers. And they say he was a shrink to boot. Bad stuff....Jim
